much less crazy than pizza gate or so many of the cults conspiracies. why was Vance there? Why keep it secret? If Kamala had been shown to do something similar, would you ignore it? Let's say she went to the NYT secretly and they later published an embarrassing but not a kill shot story on Biden's memory loss. Would you be concerned? I don't know what the meeting was about or if there was a conspiracy. I''ll wait for further developments. Perhaps Murdoch will be paid back for the settlement with crypto. Let's see if the suit is settled. If it goes to court, that could be damaging to both parties. Stay tuned.

Hadn’t seen it. But the meeting is concerning to me. The x post states it’s not unusual for vp’s to meet with top media figures. Really? Maybe for interviews but not secretly. The timing suggests possible collaboration on the wsj story. If they settle the suit, the whole conspiracy theory seems more plausible. As u MAGAs have stated, the article was not as damaging to trump.as advertised. time will tell. If the wsj prints more damning stories, it’s probably untrue. If it’s the D’s fault, why not release it? That would add to the narrative that US government needs to be torn down and rrebuilt as trump is doing.

Here's the thing I think you're missing. Epstein could well have been mosaad or another Israeli intelligence agent. How did he get so wealthy, so quickly? How did he get a highly paid, highly competitive brokers job at Goldman Sachs with no degree? How did he come to know the influential Maxwells as a kid from Brooklyn? How did he get teaching job at a prestigious prep school with no college degree? If he were a foreign agent, his actions and that of his "friends" could change global alliances. They may well have... And if was not an agent, it's still a disgusting, shameful story, for him and anyone closely associated with him. worth a read. The article was republished in the Jerusalem post. https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/jeffrey-epstein-may-have-had-links-to-israeli-leaders-the-rolling-stone-674244 Wouldn't you like to know the truth? I would.

I don't think it's funny at all. I'm sure the hospital you were /are affiliated with had a difficult time keeping the doors open. Mine did as well but we survived having a reasonable amount of commercially insured patients to counter a very large Medicaid population. making it worse by cutting Medicaid (which you must know, barely covers costs) will cause many more closures than if the bill didn't pass.

watch and wait. It is honest. there's multigenerational poverty in areas such as Vance grew up in. I don't give those people a pass for the most part. It's how they've always lived but they're not going to go to work even if anyone would hire them or there were jobs in those communities. And many are unable to fill out the forms necessary even if they can somehow go to work. In some of these places, small hospitals are the largest employers. And many will likely close. but no doubt, even after they're out of insulin and out of food, they'll vote R.

It's hard to be critical of people for inherited stupidity but some are just too stupid to abide. And believing in trump is costing them big. Medicaid cuts have gotten most of the press as they all be devastating to rural communities who overwhelming voted for trump. The SNAP cuts will also cause significant pain. I have sympathy for the poor rural folks that voted D. those that voted for trump are getting what they voted for. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/07/19/trump-snap-food-cuts-rural-grocers-megabill-00463048 “I lean pretty heavily right most of the time, but one of the things that I do lean to the left on is we’re a pretty wealthy country, we can help people out,” said St. Johns, Arizona, Mayor Spence Udall, whose town overwhelmingly supportedTrump in 2024. “The businesses that will be affected most by this are the businesses that are most disadvantaged, that are struggling, and you’re going to find that in the rural markets,” he added. Udall’s community, which sits halfway between — but still far from — Phoenix and Albuquerque, has one grocery store and one local food bank serving over 3,500 people. If the store shutters due to the food aid cuts, the next closest option for groceries is roughly 30 miles away. dumb, dumb, dumb
